US Cremonese vs Como
MILAN (Interstat) — US Cremonese hosts Como on Sunday, May 24, in a Serie A matchup that pits two clubs riding momentum into the final weekend of the season.
Kickoff is set for 8:45 p.m. local time at Stadio Giovanni Zini.
Cremonese enters on a three-match winning streak after a 1-0 victory at Udinese on May 17. The club has posted clean sheets in five of its past six outings, including a 3-0 win against Pisa on May 10 and a 2-1 result at Salernitana on March 28. The lone blemish in that stretch was a 2-1 home loss to Lazio on May 4.
Como counters with a four-match unbeaten run. The visitors defeated Parma 1-0 on May 17 and beat Verona 1-0 on May 10. That result followed a scoreless draw at Napoli on May 2 and a 2-0 victory against ADO Den Haag on the same date. Como’s only loss in its past six league matches came April 17 at Sassuolo, 2-1.
A player to watch for Como is midfielder Maxence Caqueret. The Frenchman entered as a substitute in the 90th minute of the win against Verona and recorded an assist. He is expected to see increased minutes Sunday.
Cremonese will look to midfielder Alberto Grassi, who was substituted out during the 3-0 win over Pisa on May 10. Grassi has been a steady presence in the midfield throughout the season.
The teams played to a 1-1 draw Sept. 27, 2025, in Cremona in the most recent head-to-head meeting.
Como’s schedule has included a string of tightly contested results. The club earned draws against Sampdoria, Bari and Udinese during a stretch in March, and suffered a 4-3 defeat to Inter Milan on April 12. The lone blowout victory came March 22, a 5-0 win at Pisa.
Cremonese showed offensive punch early in the season, scoring four goals in a March 23 win at Parma and two goals against Salernitana on March 28. The defense has tightened since, allowing one goal over the past five matches.
A simulation by Interstat projects a 1-1 draw.
Como holds a slight edge in the all-time series, but Cremonese has not lost at home to the visitors since 2022. Sunday’s match carries implications for final league positioning, with both teams hovering near the middle of the Serie A table.
